| Lando Calrissian in Skiff Guard Disguise Once upon a time I was given a Christmas tip from a guy at work which was two cans of beer..... To say the least, I was fucking fuming! Two beers??? seriously, his shit tip cost me another tenner because I then had to buy more beer just to make it worth it's while! Same thing happened a couple of years ago when I used my awesome knowledge to make a mockery of everyone in the Detail Game I was generously awarded a prize from Steve (Cantina_Patron) which became the 1st Star Wars MOC I had owed since childhood. Naturally I was over the moon about this  However, this has worked in much the same way as those two cans beer! The figure was Lando Calrissian in Skiff Guard Disguise. Being an obsessive collector and owning my first MOC.... I wanted more! And given that Lando in Skiff can be picked up for a reasonable price MOC wise, I decided to add more and create a small focus.... And trust me it is currently very small, but I'm hoping to extend this focus over the coming years so thought a starter limelight was needed So..... Here is Steve's costly legacy so far  (I'm keeping a tally on cost Steve and you may recieve annual invoices  )
Card - Kenner - ROTJ 65b (Made in Mexico)
Figure - Sculpt 3 Light brown - No COO (Lili Ledy with Lili Ledy Accessories)Card - Kenner - ROTJ 77B
Figure - Sculpt 1 Light brown - H.K. COO
Card - Palitoy - ROTJ 65A (With Kay-Bee price sticker)
Figure - Sculpt 2 Dark brown - No COOCard - Palitoy - ROTJ 65B
Figure - Sculpt 2 Dark brown - H.K. COOCard - Palitoy Tri-Logo - 70 Type C (with Kay-Bee price sticker)
Figure - Sculpt 2 Dark brown - No COO

| Great start and a cool story, Alex  I love Lando Skiff he's a cool dude with his removable helmet and steampunkesque style. I also won a Lando skiff moc from Steve in a Detail Game a long while back. Steve is like the Lando Skiff Moc magnate of the UK - just sitting on piles of Lando investments... he may feel generous one day and throw a few out here and there for mere mortals lke you and I... he's a good bloke but I'd def charge him a comission on your new addiction |

| Alex, that's a nice start to your Lando Skiff focus.  You should start with a loose figure collection first and then work your way to the MOC's. |

|  What have I done! Next time I host a detail game I'd better send the winner a pencil topper. Seriously, that's a nice run you've started Alex. I'll look forward to watching it develop. |

| Looking good Alex, great figure for a focus, as you say relatively inexpensive to pick up & quite a few variations considering he only came on the ROTJ cards, I got a little side tracked myself with MOC's & now have a couple of small run's, can be hard work tracking them down for the right price these days though, you going to add any baggies to the run? can be picked up pretty cheap. Good luck with the mini focus.  |
